ABSTRACT
Salmonella belongs to the
Enterobacteriaceae family, and is the cause of illnesses such as enteric fevers, enteritis and septicemia. Accordingly, a necessity exists of researching and developing new techniques, -which must be sensible, specific, economic and fast- for genus determination; all this related to the culture technique (official technique). In the present work, 80 samples of chicken were analyzed for Salmonella both by the Reveal
™ equipment and by the culture technique with and without a pre-enrichment step (reference technique). Samples were collected in established markets in Netzahualcóyotl City and Chimalhuacán, Estado de México; and analyzed by the culture technique, from which 15 Salmonella strains were isolated. 14 of those strains were obtained when the pre-enrichment step was implemented. Meanwhile, using the Reveal
™ equipment (new technique), the presence of 16 Salmonella strains was identified. The statistical method used, defined as a method of predictive values, calculates the sensitivity and specificity of the Reveal
™ test in relation with the culture technique. It also determines the positive predictive value (PPV), that represents the probability that the microorganism is truly present when the Reveal
™ test scores positive; and the negative predictive value (NPV), that represents the probability that the microorganim is not present when the Reveal
